    Engine mount movement

    My mrs' 182 has started to knock on acceleration so I am guessing it'll be the upper engine mount, I have just rocked the engine and am curious to know how much the engine mount should move? When I pulled it I could probably move it around 4-5mm with great ease, should it be more rigid?

    5k rev issue

    Yesterday on the way to collect my Chinese I put my foot down a little whilst driving the mrs' 182. As I put my foot down it revved fine then felt like the limiter had been reached so changed out of 3rd into 4th. The odd thing was I'm sure I'd barely made it passed 5000rpm. So this evening...
